Casio Men's AQ190W-1A Multi-Task Gear Sports Watch Review

This was my first Casio watch and let me tell you, I am thoroughly impressed.

The first thing that struck me is that this watch already had the time set. The time was exact down to only being a matter of seconds off the actual time. That includes the date, year, EVERYTHING. I have NEVER had a watch come out of the package and be practically set already. All I really had to do was choose my proper city (in other words, the proper time zone) and it was set. The analog minute and hour hands are synchronized with the digital time and spun around automatically to display the proper time. VERY neat to watch. It's also amazingly thin for an ana-digi watch. Most watches of this type are ungodly thick and wide. I'd say this is fairly on par with a digital-only watch.

This watch is loaded with features. Instead of simply having a second time zone you can set, you can set it for major cities all over the globe. A couple simple key presses will even switch the second time zone to the primary time zone. It even has Daylight Savings Time. The alarm system allows for multiple alarms, and even includes a snooze feature of all things. There is also a countdown timer (I call it the egg timer) and the watches major feature, the chronometer, or lap feature.

The normal advanced features are available, lap/split time etc. However, that extra dial in the bottom of the face comes into play here. You can set your total distance you are running, riding, etc. After you've run your distance and you stop your time, start your next lap, or whatever the dial will actually approximate your average speed over the distance you indicated. This would be a great watch for track runners or bicycle enthusiasts. Simply amazing technology.

So why did I give it four stars instead of five, you ask? Well, there's a couple of flaws in this diamond. Firstly, when they say the display is lit by LED, they aren't kidding. There's a single yellow LED on the right side that shines light across the face of the watch. I thought this technology died a well justified death with the introduction of electro-luminescent technology. Apparently I was wrong. While this adequately illuminates the analog portion of the watch, one must struggle mightily to see the digital time which is partially shadowed. Also, the light throws off a bright yellow band of light to the left of the watch. Great for an emergency "flashlight", but annoying or even startling for anyone sitting to one side of you. The other reason I had to knock a star off is the manual tells me that, even hardly using any features on the watch, I can expect a whopping two years of battery life. In the wake of watches being advertised as having 7-year or even 10-year batteries, I am woefully unimpressed. That alone is a reason to give it only three stars, but there are so many great things about it that I didn't have the heart.

If those two negatives about the watch don't scare you off, then buy it! It really is a great watch packed with so many features. It's just a shame it had to come with an Achilles Heel.
